Winter is here again, have you ever had this experience? When you are walking on the road with your children, an aunt suddenly pops up and says to you: \”Oh, I think your children don\’t have enough clothes to wear!\” – you immediately roll your eyes silently in your heart. Whether in the south with air conditioning or in the north with heating, living conditions are getting better and better. Mothers not only have to worry about their children catching colds, but more often, they also have to be careful not to get sick due to heat! Let’s take a look at a set of small comics. As long as you master these few tips, you can spend the winter confidently! I have been fighting alone on the road of \”your mother thinks you are cold\” for many years. This fierce battle continued until I had a child – my mother felt that my child was also cold. This is how I dress my children on a cold day: This is how my grandma dresses her children on a cold day: Old people often feel cold themselves, so they always add layers of clothes to their children. Some old people are reluctant to turn on the heating (in the south) and wrap their children like rice dumplings: As everyone knows, wearing too many clothes is not only detrimental to the growth and development of the child. If a baby (especially before one year old) is covered for too long or kept too warm, his The temperature around the body will rise rapidly. Because they are wrapped in thick clothes, it becomes difficult to dissipate heat. Children sweat a lot and are extremely prone to dehydration and \”heat-covering syndrome.\” In fact, these points can determine whether a child is hot or cold: 1. Playing indoors Wear as much as your parents and one spare. In southern families without heating, mothers have to try their best to ensure the room temperature at home. The most suitable room temperature for newborns is around 24 degrees Celsius. For older children, it can be lowered, such as 20 degrees Celsius. If your child always wants to cling to you, he is probably cold. Regardless of whether the heating is on or not, you can let your child wear the same amount of clothing as you do, such as wearing comfortable underwear + a thin sweater + a thick down jacket. Then use the \”one more layer rule\” – prepare a small piece of clothing (such as a thin sweater or cashmere vest) and adjust it flexibly anytime and anywhere ~ 2. Do not use a sleeping bag close to your body when sleeping at night. Try to use a sleeping bag at night. Place a heating device around the baby\’s sleeping area, otherwise the temperature will easily get too high. The optimal temperature is guaranteed to be around 24 degrees Celsius, but if there are no conditions, you may wish to use a sleeping bag + small blanket of more than 3.5 tog in a room below 16 degrees Celsius, and avoid using thick quilts. (Tog is the unit used to measure clothing, blankets and bedding in the UK. The higher the value, the stronger the warmth retention.) We also have to check the child\’s neck frequently. Many babies will sweat when they sleep, and they will sweat in an hour or two. It will be better. Therefore, children can wear less clothes when they first fall asleep, and then cover them up after they are asleep. If the blanket is used, cover it under the armpits of the arms to prevent suffocation. 3. Take off your thick coat and sit in a safety seat in the car. There have been precedents for babies to wear too many seat belts and suffocate. Therefore, please remember to take off your thick coat when sitting in a safety seat. After getting in the car, mothers can first put their children in the safety seat and then cover them with their coats. When the interior of the car becomes warm, remove your jacket as appropriate. 4. Small accessories for outdoor activities can be used flexibly. The baby\’s head can easily dissipate heat, so when going out in winter, remember to wear a hat for the baby. If you are using a stroller, you may wish to add a foot muff. There are alsoSome mothers use throw blankets to do addition and subtraction. We should always check our face, ears and neck, and add or remove clothing in time. Once you enter a warm room, remove extra thermal insulation in time, otherwise you will easily overheat. Finally, here is a simple tip – wear red, take off and wear white: If you find that your child is sweating, blushing, or has wet hair, take off the clothes in time. When a child becomes not in a good mood and his nose and ears look very pale, then it is time to actively keep warm~~ I believe that as long as mothers pay more attention and observe the baby\’s activities in time, they will be able to survive the cold weather~ They say A child is holding a stove. In the winter when the temperature is difficult to control, it really doesn’t matter who is saying whether the child is cold or not. We still have to treat the matter of keeping warm scientifically. Dear mothers and grandparents, please stop blindly adding clothes to your children~~ Our children are really not cold!
